Frame Cutting Help

[Azdevil09]

Hello all,

Working on installing hoop on my ‘81 750K. As I am a bit down the path I have two questions.

1) any recommendations n how to get the bottom half of the frame pipe out of the support without cutting the support gusset? (Pic 1)

2) currently deciding between two methods in the hoop. One is just weld the hoop in as pictured (second pic) and I would slightly raise the top bar where the tank sits. OR weld in a completely new 1” round bar from Shock mount to front frame. Wanted to know how others have done it on this model as most videos I have seen do not have this frame Config.

Thanks!

Hi, to get the inner support out I just used a screwdriver to wedge in between then held in with a pair of pliers and twisted/moved it u till it broke off. Works fairly well. For The Bold industries has a good YouTube on doing this on his cb750.
